Sonny goes to his father's office and can't seem to bring himself to sit in his father's chair behind the desk.
He then pulls up another chair to the edge of the desk and begins making the necessary phone calls after retrieving an address book from the safe.
Such a little thing that spoke so loudly; He couldn't sit in his father's chair. Also, who among us has never scooped something tasty out of a pan on the stove with a piece of bread?!? A couple of my favorite little moments.
Agreed Mark. Definitely one of my favorite little moments. While there is no actual dialogue in that scene, it still speaks volumes!
DC - glad to see you back!
I noticed last night that after the Corleone's hit Bruno Tattaglia and Santino is feeling more confident, he is sitting in Vito's chair. I think that when Vito's fate was uncertain, there was a bit of a "Post 9-11" feeling at The Corleone Mall?
However, after Santino began his offensive, he gained the necessary fortitude and thought himself "worthy" to be behind the desk. If anything, to show everybody he was firmly in charge and taking care of things.
